  • Patent number: 5261328
    Abstract: In a broad-area defense mine, the inclination under which an active member can rise or can be fired from an ambush position can be varied with the aid of at least one adjusting member between the positioning frame and a mounting or support for the active member which, in turn, are connected by way of a universal joint. In this arrangement, the mine, in the same way and with equal reliability as heretofore, combats a target within a specific area, but it is possible by means of this device to defend a substantially larger zone: the mine is transported, within the larger zone, to the "correct" site.

  • Patent number: 5237926
    Abstract: By means of multi-member, spreadable righting assemblies, a supporting area can be enlarged in connection with a rightable drop unit, the torque required for righting can be reduced, and the stability can be enhanced. In order to provide that a base of each righting assembly does perform the desired, defined movement, at least one guide member (for example a parallel guide means) is included. The afore-mentioned improvements can be attained practically without an increase in the volume or in the weight of the drop unit.

  • Patent number: 5198614
    Abstract: In a mine capable of righting itself, laying devices for sensor lines are attached on the outside to the topside of a mine housing. During storage and during transport, the laying devices are, in their initial position, in close contact with the topside of the mine housing. Upon distribution of the mines over the terrain, the laying devices are spread away from the topside of the mine housing and transferred into their effective position so that the sensor lines can be ejected at an angle of about 45.degree. inclined with respect to the vertical.
